Oven Roasted BBQ Ribs

These are so easy because the oven does most of the work. Definitely double the recipe if you have a hungry crowd.

  • 2 lb baby back ribs (1 rack)

Rub

  • 1 t ground black pepper

  • 2 t kosher salt

  • 1 t ground cumin

  • 1 t paprika

  • 1 t chili powder

  • 1⁄2 c brown sugar, light or dark

  • 1 T garlic powder

  • 1⁄4 t cayenne (or more to taste)

Barbeque Sauce

  • 1 c ketchup

  • 1 c packed brown sugar

  • 1⁄4 c water

  • 1⁄4 c apple cider vinegar

  • 1 T Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 T honey or molasses

  • 1 t kosher salt

  • 1 t garlic powder

  • 1⁄4 t cayenne

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a large sheet pan with foil.

Mix all rub ingredients together in a small bowl. Coat ribs with the rub. Place the rack of ribs on the prepared sheet pan. Cover with foil and roast until tender, about 2 hours.

Make sauce by combining all sauce ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer until thickened, about 1 hour.

Preheat broiler (or grill). Remove the foil, drain the pan of some of the pan juices, and coat with barbeque sauce. Broil watchfully until sauce begins to caramelize, 3-5 minutes.
